apidoc: Let search preferentially find things on the current page

[jmesserly]

I was on http://api.dartlang.org/docs/continuous/dart_html/Element.html and I tried to search for "id". But none of the results were what I wanted. I figured out how to get there with "Element.id" but I think "search as you type" should consider the fact that I'm already on Element.html and use that to sort matches. In other words, prefer members on Element, then search more broadly.

(I'm also a bit surprised the exact text match didn't help. All of the matches were for types like IDBAny, IDBKey, etc)

This might be nice, but I suspect that having the table of contents view on the right makes most uses of this unnecessary.
